Carlo Ancelotti, coach of Real Madrid, sent a message of encouragement to Levante after defeating him at the Santiago Bernabéu in a match that caused his relegation, and focused on the Champions League final, he assured that the “self-esteem” of his team ” you grow a lot”.

“It’s a sad day for Levante, I want to send a message of support to the coach, who is Italian, to the club and his fans. I am convinced that they will soon return to the First Division”he stated before answering questions from the press.

In Real Madrid’s 6-0 win over Levante, Brazilian Vinícius Junior shone with his first hat-trick and Frenchman Karim Benzema, who equaled the goals scored by Raúl González as the second-highest scorer in the club’s history.

“Vinicius and Karim have done very well tonight, combining like they have all season. It is the merit of a job that the team does so that they are in their best conditions so that they show their quality. Time has helped them understand each other very well,” she analyzed.

Focusing on the final of the ‘Champions’ on May 28 against Liverpool, Ancelotti sees his team emotionally launched. He joked with the system, assuring that they will play with a 4-3-3 but admitting that at times it can be retouched with a fourth midfielder, and played the confusion saying that both Fede Valverde and Rodrygo will play. Between the two they play a starting place.

“I think we arrived well because self-esteem has grown a lot in recent times. We had the challenge of reaching the final after winning the league. Now there is still time and we have to have intensity and commitment. Today the team has given very good signs because it has worked very well on the pitch”, he valued.

He revealed that Andriy Lunin will be the goalkeeper who plays against Cádiz and that against Betis the League will close again Thibaut Courtois, who is fighting with Bono, Sevilla goalkeeper, for ending up being the goalkeeper with the fewest goals in LaLiga.

Ancelotti fled from the praise that he only wants to extend in time what he is experiencing this season with Real Madrid. “I don’t like to give myself votes, let others do it. I like that I’m living a happy moment in my professional career and hopefully I can continue for a long time. We have a very big goal but we’re going to give it our all”.
